The clip, which has been shared hundreds of times across social media apps including Facebook and TikTok, shows around six men attempting to push over a yellow stationary car.
It is believed that the men are Scottish tourists.
A separate video shows the car toppled over onto its side.
One group that shared the footage captioned it with the statement: “We’ve got no issue with the Scots coming over for Easter Weekend — but this kind of carry-on? Absolutely not.
“It’s clowns like this that ruin it for the rest of us. If that’s how you lot behave, keep it at your own meets. That’s not how we do it over here.”
